American hostages in Iran were released.


If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

My mother was just finding out she was pregnant...with me.


Suzanne: I never use catalogs. I'd rather go in the store and see all the salespeople groveling and sucking up to you. Julia: Pardon me, I never knew they were so solicitous at the K-Mart.

And Reagan took credit for it. The hostage situation, not Mrs. Jailyardguy's pregnancy.

I met one of the hostages after his release.

I lived in DC then - it was very interesting (in a sick, demoralizing kind of way) to see the political maneuvering that occurred around this issue.

I left DC soon afterward - some things you just KNOW you're not cut out for!

nevermind, I just realized how ridiculous what I wrote looked



It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story... AGATHA CHRISTIE, Life magazine, May 14, 1956
